About White Barn Candle Company

Crafting moments of joy and comfort through exceptional home fragrance since 1990

Our Story: Where It All Began

White Barn Candle Company was founded in 1990 in the charming coastal town of Kennebunk, Maine. Our founder’s vision was simple yet profound: to capture the essence of a New England country barn—the warmth, the simplicity, the authenticity—through beautifully crafted candles and home fragrances.

What started in a small workshop with hand-poured candles has grown into one of America’s most beloved home fragrance brands. But our commitment to quality and craftsmanship remains unchanged. Every White Barn candle is still made with the same attention to detail and passion for excellence that defined our very first collection.

In 2008, White Barn joined the Bath & Body Works family, allowing us to reach even more homes while maintaining the artisanal quality and unique scent profiles that our customers have come to love. Today, White Barn continues to honor its New England heritage while creating innovative fragrances that transform houses into homes.

From our signature 3-wick candles to our luxurious hand soaps and room sprays, every White Barn product tells a story. A story of dedication, quality, and the belief that fragrance has the power to create lasting memories and elevate everyday moments.
